Facts have emerged from the Nigerian state of Niger stating that a cleaner earns N375,000 monthly.

This was revealed during the ongoing verification of the state workforce on how government paid top officials double their salary and the inflation of junior officials’ salaries are inflated for the sole purpose of diverting government fund.


According to Leadership, a messenger at the Ministry of Finance earns N265,000 monthly, while sources close to the verification firm, Sally Tibbot Consultants informed that no fewer than three permanent secretaries in Niger State civil service earned over N1.3 million monthly as against ‘between N400,000 and N500, 000′ that they are entitled to.


These permanent secretaries reportedly earn more from their ‘consultancy’ job to another government agency which ensures that their take home runs to about N1.3 million monthly.


“The irony is that some of the said permanent secretaries were members of the committee set up by the government to guide the consultants in the ongoing verification exercise,” the source revealed.

Leadership investigations revealed further that the cleaners who earn about N375, 000 are not supposed to earn more than N30,000 each monthly.



At the Veterinary Department in the Ministry of Agriculture also, a man who took cows for grazing got a minimum of N375,000 as his salary instead of N23,000.


Reports say when the junior staff, when confronted, denied collecting the said money, rather, they claimed that their names were being regularly used by senior officials to divert the said amount as they collect their actual salary monthly.


Fear has reportedly gripped a ring of top officials in Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) who ran the scam with the names of the junior officials after their names were revealed by the consultants.
